Hot Water Immersion Better than Cold to Maintain Exercise Performance
American Physiological Society (APS)Soaking in a hot tub may be preferable to an icy cold bath after exercise if the goal is to maintain optimum performance, according to a new study. This is especially true for those competing in back-to-back races in a short time span. The research will be presented at the 2024 Integrative Physiology of Exercise conference, Nov. 20鈥22, in State College, Pennsylvania.
